Abstract: The physics of wind input in the Wave Ocean Model (WAM) cycle 4 is based on scaling with the friction velocity u?. This implies that in the case of fetch-limited wind-wave growth, universal scaling laws should follow if ...

Abstract: An ensemble prediction system, especially designed for the short to early-medium range for the European domain, is presented. The initial perturbations of each ensemble are based on singular vectors that maximize the 3-day ...
